rope and use it to turn the rope rotor
six full revolutions in the direction of
the arrow (see illustration).

Hold the rotor steady – straighten
the twisted rope.

Release the rotor and let go of rope
slowly so that it winds onto the rotor.
The starter grip must sit firmly in the
rope guide bushing. If the grip
droops to one side: Increase spring
tension by one additional turn.

is overtensioned and could break.
Take one turn of the rope off the
rotor.
